Say goodbye to unwanted hair with laser treatments

Say Goodbye to Unwanted Hair

Get rid of unwanted hair safely and effectively with our UltraPlus VPL technology.

What it is
Laser hair removal uses concentrated beams of light to target and destroy hair follicles. The laser emits visible light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, generating heat that damages the hair follicles and inhibits future hair growth. This process is precise, targeting only the hair while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Multiple sessions are typically required for optimal results, as hair grows in different cycles.
Who it’s for

Laser hair removal at Medix Skincare & Laser Clinic in Melbourne is ideal for individuals who are looking to reduce or permanently remove unwanted hair on targeted areas, including the face, neck, underarms, and bikini lines. While the treatment is especially effective for those with light skin and dark hair, advanced laser technology now allows safe and efficient treatment for a wide range of skin tones and hair colours.

How laser hair removal works

Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment (melanin) in hair follicles. The laser passes through the skin and is absorbed by the hair root, generating heat that damages the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.

Because the laser specifically targets the hair follicle, the surrounding skin remains unharmed. Multiple sessions are required to treat hair in different growth cycles, ensuring long-lasting reduction.

Preparation
  • Avoid waxing for at least 3 weeks before your laser hair removal treatment.
  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 3 weeks before your session.
  • Discontinue exfoliants and active ingredients at least three days before your treatment.
  • Avoid any other treatments on the same area for at least one week before your session.
  • Shave the treatment area 24 hours before the session, but avoid waxing, plucking, or bleaching the hair.
  • Wearing loose clothing on the day of the appointment can help prevent irritation after the session.
Aftercare
  • After treatment, the skin may feel slightly sunburnt and swollen. Apply soothing aloe vera gel or use a cold compress to reduce discomfort.
  • Refrain from hot showers, saunas, and intense physical activities for 48 hours to prevent irritation.
  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 3 weeks, and make sure to apply sunscreen to the treated areas.
  • Avoid waxing, plucking, or bleaching the treated hair between sessions—shaving is fine.

Laser Hair Removal In Melbourne

Laser Hair Removal For Men

Laser hair removal for men effectively addresses stubborn hair on areas such as underarms, shoulders, neck, and face. It significantly reduces thick, coarse hair, delivering a clean and smooth look while minimising ingrown hairs and skin irritation often caused by regular shaving.

Laser Hair Removal For Women

For women, laser hair removal targets precise areas such as the face and neck, underarms, and bikini line. It offers long-lasting smoothness, eliminating the need for frequent shaving or waxing while reducing the risk of ingrown hairs, pigmentation, and skin irritation commonly associated with traditional hair removal methods.

How Laser Hair Removal Benefits the Skin

Unwanted Hair

Laser hair removal effectively targets and reduces unwanted hair on areas such as the face, underarms, and bikini, leaving your skin smoother for longer.

Ingrown Hairs

Laser hair removal also helps prevent the formation of ingrown hairs. This not only enhances skin smoothness but also supports a healthier, clearer appearance over time.

Razor Bumps

Laser hair removal significantly reduces the need for frequent shaving, which in turn helps minimise common issues like razor bumps. By targeting hair at the root, it promotes smoother skin with fewer flare-ups and discomfort, especially in sensitive areas.

Skin Irritation post Shaving or Waxing​

Regular shaving or waxing can cause irritation, ingrown hairs, skin darkening, and even eczema—especially in areas that require frequent hair removal. With permanent hair reduction, you can enjoy smoother skin, reduced irritation, and a more even, healthy-looking tone.
